Two issues with @Xfinity and @XfinitySupport in the past few months, and no way to get help. Unless it's the help they and their AI assume you might want. Hours of frustration.

I am locked out of my @ZohoOne business account and @ZohoCares stopped responding to desperate emails 16 hours ago. Please, @Zoho, call me to resolve this. I’m in the bizarre loop of needing to sign in to @ZohoOneAuth to authorize my sign in to @ZohoOneAuth.

I should add that nothing has changed other than I got a new iPhone. I know my login and password. I have access to my email and my phone number. Security is not just about keeping people out—it fails when it blocks legitimate users.
